Publication: CJCC Awards CEASE Funding under the TANF Grant Program for Minor Human Trafficking Services and Training
CEASE has been awarded an additional $75,900 under the Georgia Criminal Justice Coordinating Council’s TANF Grant Program for Minor Human Trafficking Services and Training to provide community-based follow up and aftercare services for survivors.
The clinic will use these funds to hire a full-time social work advocate to provide quality legal representation to survivors in dependency and civil proceedings. The social work advocate will support the clinic’s legal work through needs assessments, case management, referral services, expert opinion testimony, supervision of social work interns, and systems-based advocacy for the clinic’s clients.
The clinic earlier this year received a $72,000 Safe Harbor for Sexually Exploited Children grant from the CJCC.
